League Format

● Each division has 4 players.

● You’ll play 3 sets each round, partnering with a different player every set.

● That means you’ll play with and against everyone in your group.

● You keep your own score – we track individual games won, not team results.

Scoring

● Normal padel scoring applies (first to 6 games, win by 2).

● Tiebreak at 6–6 (first to 7 points).

● Add up your total games won across all 3 sets.

● Example: ○ Set 1 (with B vs C & D): 6–4 → 6 games

                   ○ Set 2 (with C vs B & D): 4–6 → 4 games

                   ○ Set 3 (with D vs B & C): 6–2 → 6 games Total = 16 games won  

Ranking & Movement

● Players are ranked by total games won.

● If there’s a tie:

    ○ Most sets won

    ○ Fewest games lost

    ○ Coin toss if still tied

● After each round Top player moves up a division, Bottom player moves down, Middle two stay put

● Adjustments may happen if new players join or someone drops out.

Rounds & Scheduling

● Each round lasts 2 weeks.

● You and your group arrange your matches at a time that suits everyone.

● Court fees are split evenly.

● If someone can’t play, they simply score zero games for that round — no penalties.
